Genetic and random mutations leading to evolution. Did you not pay attention to anything that was just said in this thread?

I'm tutoring this 12 year old kid whose science textbook is called "Matter and Motion in God's Universe". It was full of evangelical Christian indoctrination mixed in with science. An obvious precursor to what it ultimately going to be taught. Creationism. Religious schools just irk me...
this book written by an mit physicist tries to debunk evolution completely by simply stating that fossil records appeared immediatley at different times and there was no time for random mutations to take place in order to generate new phyla and organisms
you can start from page 83
im just looking through trying to find some discrepancies.

i prefer the existence of religious schools for those who choose to be taught certain curriculum, than having religion intertwined with science at public schools..
however, i suppose the children who go to a religious school don't have much of a choice to begin with, which is disappointing considering the fact most children believe in whatever their parents believe in/have been taught since childhood. nevertheless, i once attended a christian private school, and later a catholic private school... :eyespop:

read that book that i posted.. it does a great job trying to falsify evolution and instead replacing the unknown with interpretations of biblical verses.
-the latent library theory
-the improbability of evolution throughtout the cambrian explosion. -(he states its 5 million years but i think it was a bit longer)
i am getting 70 to 80 million years from other references.
convergent eyes appearing on the same loci of genes. (i knew about this phenomenon before) it is still unexplainable.
I have to give that guy credit, he did some nit picking and research and could really sway a crowd with basic scientific knowledge
yukii
seems interesting, however do you have the book or are you viewing the pages online?
yukii
going to bed now. i leave you guys with this.

you can skip through the pages online.
Good arguments against evolution i have to say this is the most convincing text ive read with regards to the subject. Although his counter arguments are bullox lol

why do we have the power to wiggle our ears
-have wisdom teeth
-have a tail bone
-have an appendix
God just put it there just in case of an emergency.:rolleyes: they are all just a bunch of mutations that happen to everyone.. it's funny how they tie evolution with that picture:
:stongue:
For the sake of posterity, the latest scientific evidence suggests that appendices are actually not vestigial organs.
//Simply not enough biologists on TA to make for a rational discussion. :p
Evolution is pretty clear in biology, but there are tons of dumb-s out there.
yukii
i recently read the appendix wasn't a vestigial organ but i still hadn't looked it up to see for myself if it was true [i was formally taught that it was..] so my bad everyone... for the sake of posterity :o
